Fajita Pork Chops are the perfect mashup of juicy, flavorful pork and all the bold, zesty goodness of classic fajitas without the hassle of juggling a hot skillet.
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Toss the potatoes with half the olive oil (or cooking spray) and half the fajita seasoning. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Spread the potatoes, cut side down, on the baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Roast for 20 minutes until are golden brown on the bottom and almost tender. If the potatoes aren’t ready, continue cooking them in 5 minute increments until almost fork tender.
Step 2
Meanwhile, lightly coat the pork chops with olive oil (or cooking spray) and coat on both sides with remaining fajita seasoning. Lightly coat the peppers and onions as well and season with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Carefully remove the sheet pan from the oven. Push the potatoes to one side. Add the pork chops, bell peppers, and onions. Return to the oven and cook for 10-15 minutes until the pork reaches at least 145 degrees. (cook longer if you prefer more well done pork.) Let rest for 5 minutes. Squeeze fresh lime juice on the pork and sprinkle with cilantro.
